I think your transmission is a 4T45E which does not have a typical dipstick. Check underneath the vehicle on the transmission case above the oil pan on the passenger side of the vehicle and you will see a pipe thread plug. The transmission must be at operating temperature on a level surface and the engine running, you then remove the plug and add new fluid in the fill hole until it runs out the removed plug. You will obviously need a catch basin and do not re-insert plug until fluid has stopped overflowing. Do not turn off the engine during the process.

SOURCE: where do i put transmission fluid in my 2006 Saturn Vue?

If you have no leaks dont worry about it. Just get it serviced if its time. Alot of cars are this way now. You need to be under the car to drain and fill. My BMW is this way

Have a 2007 Saturn Vue 6 cyl. Not Hybrid and the manual shows a dipstick to check transmission fluid level back of the engine. Where is it, I can't see it. Thanks

I think the V6 Vue has the dipstick nearer the front of the engine bay. It is located near the battery, tucked down low between the transmission and the radiator.
Some car models do not always have a dipstick fitted as standard so there might only be a cap covering the dip hole.

I cant find the dip stick for my 2003 v6 saturn vue. Where is it?

this is a so called "sealed transmission" what does this mean?, there is no dip stick, the fluid level is checked by removing a plug on the tranmission case.

Need to add transmission fluid and computer has locked up so car won't start

Pour the fluid down the same hole the dip stick uses unless its a standard then you have a different problem. To reset the computer take the negative cable off the battery for about 10 minutes.

I have a saturn vue automatic 2004 AWD car and need to check the transmission fluid and cannot find the dip stick anywhere. Do you know where it is?

Unfortunately, There is no Dipstick for the Tranny. Most all of the Foriegn Imports are going with no Dipstick now so that you will have no choice but take it in for Service.

How to add fluid to a 2004 Saturn Vue transfer case

well if it is a v6.. the stick is on your right(as you stand in front) and way down. It has a yellow handle, but hard to see.

if you have v4 probably doesn't have one they are sealed.
